    Would love a library like this in my home, of course my home would need to be the size of a small castle. Beautiful library, I can almost smell the books.

    Are the books available to read?
    Are there digital copies?
    That just seems like a shyt ton of knowledge and information that some folks thought was worthy of being bound and preserved sequestered behind velvet ropes.
